The Fontaine Saint-Michel is situated in Place Saint-Michel, located in the vibrant 5th arrondissement of Paris. Constructed during the French Second Empire by architect Gabriel Davioud, it stands as an iconic symbol of that era's architectural prowess.

The Fontaine Saint-Michel itself dominates the scene with its intricate sculptures and ornate design. Its presence adds an air of elegance and sophistication to its surroundings.
